Wow, hundreds of thousands views and two women with comments questioning it.

How do think pissant will bring himself to vote for Bachmann, bra-burning feminist that she is?

[pissant]

Let’s see: Pissant says repeal the 19th, women voters have screwed the country.

Lakeshark: That must mean women can’t vote in Pissant’s world.

Well guess what toots, me pining for repeal ain’t gonna make it happen, anymore than Ann Coulter pining for it. So guess what that means, toots? That means women can and do vote. So until that changes, I better get used to it, huh? And since I’m a conservative and not an amnesty pimp, Bachmann passes the pissant test, and palin fails.

[2nd Amendment]

I’ve always wondered about that. . It seems to me that a lot of conservative women are attractive (Palin, Bachman, Fox women, Bush’s press secretary, Elizabeth dole, etc. etc.) and pleasing to the male eye while leftist feminists are are something else (aka Sotermayer, Kagan, Helen Thomas, Rosy, etc.) If I was to be stranded in a mountain cabin with either group, I’d choose the conservative women.

Dude, you’ve missed the excitement of the past few days. Pissant doesn’t like women . . . well, most of them, anyway. He doesn’t think they should be allowed to vote. Even Bachmann.

Drinking already, ace?

That's a roger.

You know what, lots of people have said that to you since your initial post.

Cats out of the bag Pissy, and you can't seem to get it back in.

My distributor is out of Foster’s until Thursday, and I can’t think of what to buy. It must be a lager (imported or domestic), with an alcohol content in the 5% range. Any ideas?

[pissant]

I don’t want it back in any bag. Repeal the 19A.

[RobRoy]

I thought it was an excellent, though biased, article that should stimulate some good discussion here - for those of us that read it.

But I gotta go to a meeting right now. :)

Lol. Maybe he'll force her to iron his shirts........

[McGruff]

Oh I missed that little gem.

Since I don’t think they should even be able to vote, what makes you think I’d want one as CIC.

Ben, I’ll leave it to you to worry about mascara. What I care about is philosophies, ideas and principles.

[roses of sharon]

Weak beta males permeate the Rightwing political class and FR.

Always worried, always hysterical, always nagging...

Sounds like the traits of leftwing hags to me.

[RichInOC]

I found the women Shlaes mentioned far better poster-children for the limits of woman wisdom than Governor Palin. YMMV.

[pissant]

I read it.

[TheClintons-STILLAnti-American]

"Ms. Shales assumes that Palin will have no cabinet or advisors and will have to figure out hedge funds, credit default swaps and derivatives on her own."

She just wants her to have a extensive and wide-ranging experience...you know...like our current president. /s

[RichInOC]

Beyond the title?

[1rudeboy]

Only because I have taken a curious and clinical interest in how pissant's mind works: if the country has gone down the tubes because of the 19th Amendment, and women are to blame--what about the men who voted to enact the 19th Amendment? Women couldn't vote at the time, right? So why don't we blame men?

We stuck it to ourselves, and now we blame someone else?

[TheClintons-STILLAnti-American]

"Who do you think has the bigger cosmetics bill, Palin or Bachman? "

Who cares?

I know that Tina Faye wishes she was half as good looking as the woman she's used to make herself feel relevant.
